The Bales Baby Shower




Last weekend, we had a baby shower for a fellow Ph.D. student, Steve, and his wonderful wife Mitzi. They're expecting their second little girl within a few weeks. It was a gender neutral shower, meaning women, men and children were welcome, and we all had a great time. Thanks to Jessica for hosting the shower at her house. Steve graduates in December, and his dissertation deals with Aristotle, so David and I suggested naming the new one Paristotle to reflect history and the present, but Mitzi wasn't thrilled with the suggestion :)




We had not one, but two cakes thanks to Karen bringing a delicious ice cream cake!



We sat outside on Jessica's porch while Isabella, a very vocal and bright kindergartener, kept us entertained.
